Bass Strait by Sea Kayak - Island Getaway 

And here I was (at age 64) thinking that the 18 km paddle in my Necky Elaho from Sailors Bay (Middle Harbour) to the Pyrmont Bridge (Sydney Harbour) was a something of an adventure to plan. 😁😆 A great inspiration team, thank you.

Three people who LIVED. Great vid and adventure.

Great movie. I bought the lime Seaward from you Aiden. It's great to see it crossing the Bass strait. One day I will do it myself .

Nice one!! Two of us did it early Jan 23 but going the other way, dodging the steady easterlies. Coffee every day for us, was pretty well non negotiable. Got across to Royden in 8 days, then as many rest days as you wanted after that. Brought back good memories of weather watching, and making those Crossing days! I even read that Gunns Limited book on Royden!! We stayed well clear of that bed though.....

I've gone 180mph on US Interstates on motorcycle more times than I can remember, I've averaged 140mph all night, every night all summer in a pack of 50 bikes, but kayaking in practically open ocean takes balls, if ya ask me. Nice!

Thank you team for sharing your journey, enjoyed very much. 🌌

I am a sea kayaker myself. Unfortunately, here, in my home, in Russia, white-water kayaking is much more popular. Rodeo and slalom. Of those who go on long water trips, few have good boats, most go on some kind of slow shit. Those who have it do not know the rowing technique. Those who know it don't have time, because the fucking job and the family take it all away. That's why I train and travel mostly alone. Sometimes someone comes with me, who can handle my mileage. 40-kilometer crossings are a good indicator. In 7 hours, though, it's pretty slow, with your kayaks, but I got a lot of pleasure watching you. Maybe I'll go explore this area too. The approaches to shores are good. Beaches and not such killer waves. I'll do. You're cool, I would go with people like you.. Thanks for the movie! P.S. Respect to the wise grandfather-instructor, it's a pleasure to look at him.

I'm exhausted just watching this. Great vid Um and I can hardly wait for the next one :)

Terrific video, well narrated, and edited and thoroughly enjoyable. I consider myself a confident and reasonably skillful sea kayaker but the thought of a bass strait crossing scares me. Not just the logistics, but the long crossings with no land in sight and the vagaries of weather. Cannot believe you caught up with a legend in Les Allen....Wow. You guys are amazing. A trip that will stay with you forever. Thanks so much for sharing your journey. I totally enjoyed watching.

Absolutely elite guys! Looked like a trip of a lifetime, definitely on the bucket list!! Keep up the great work!!

Great inspiring video. U did well. 👍

Well done, you guys. I absolutely loved your story.

I just started kayaking. Found this and Baltic Sourge and it's exactly what I needed to just get extra exciting about it. Thanks for sharing the trip of yours. Greetings from Germany.

What a great, fun video. Well done!

Thank-you for sharing your great adventure!

Very cool adventure and well done. Respect !! Greetings from Holland.

Awesome journey. Congratulations! I enjoyed your great camerawork and the travel story. All the best from Japan.

Such a good video guys. And well done by the way, I’m very impressed and you should be proud of paddling across Bass. You can’t argue with the weather and you guys showed great decision making on paddling the conditions you could handle. Congratulations.

It is my sincerely held belief, and long time sea kayaking standard, that one must have coffee not only EVERY day, but twice a day to boot. Great adventure, thank you for sharing it!

LOL, The news broadcast portion killed me. Now let's cross live to our weather correspondent, Alexandra Petto, for a live update. LOLOLOL

Brilliant vid. Thoroughly enjoyed yr adventure.

Great story and well done.

Well done, also a fun video. Very brave to do that crossing.👍👍👍

what a fantastic video..well done

Thanks for sharing 🤙🏽

Looks incredible. It makes me wanna get a sea kayak myself

Great video!

Got sent here to check out this vid by Ro. Insane trip mate, great vid 🤙

Awesome video mate! The wind animation and the pencil powered Kayak was critical to me understanding the task at hand so I'm grateful that shot made the cut!

Cracking mate! And enough time has definitely passed that I'd do it again!

Amazing adventure and great narrative. And the music. Really inspiring I am really curious how did you pack a drone with you and recharged the batteries during the trip?

Awesome endeavor! What kayak did you guys use?

2 years without kayaking? How long have you kayaked before this trip? It looks like you need some good skills to stay upright in those waves

How do you get your water

allie doesn't look to o happy at 29mins!!!

13 hours in a kayak. How do you go to the washroom?

Had to stop as their middle class crap was making me sick 😫
